This step is crucial to get a smooth ice cream texture. Add the Cream and Sweetener: Add the heavy cream, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and almond extract (if using) to the blender. Blend again until all ingredients are well combined. Flavor Variations (Optional): If you want to make a flavored version, add the unsweetened cocoa powder or nut butter at this stage and blend until smooth. Taste and Adjust: Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if necessary, adding more sweetener to your preference. Chill the Mixture: Pour the mixture into a container and place it in the freezer. Let it chill for about 1-2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to prevent ice crystals from forming. This step helps achieve a creamier texture. Add Mix-Ins (Optional): After the mixture has thickened but is still soft, you can fold in any mix-ins like dark chocolate chips or nuts. Final Freeze: Once the ice cream has reached your desired consistency, let it freeze for an additional 2-3 hours or until firm. Serve: Scoop and serve your keto-friendly cottage cheese ice cream. If it's too hard to scoop, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften. Tips: For a creamier texture, you can add a tablespoon of vodka or another alcohol to the mixture before freezing; this helps to prevent the ice cream from getting too hard. | | | |
